Looped language models (LMs) reuse one block of layers several times per token generation, promising more latent computation at no additional storage cost. Despite their rising popularity, the analysis of looped LMs is still in its infancy: little is known about whether the iterative transformations actually improve th...
Chain of Thought (CoT) monitoring is used by frontier labs to detect misbehaviour of AI systems. Yet, its reliability remains poorly understood. We attribute this to the lack of a successful organizing principle that leads to generalizable conclusions about monitoring reliability in different regimes. Recent work attri...
Effective collaboration among large language model (LLM) agents in multi-agent systems requires sharing relevant evidence, requesting missing information, and incorporating teammates'contributions into decisions. Training these behaviors is challenging because final task outcomes provide limited feedback on the value o...
Work on debugging LLM agents treats the"first mistake"marked by a human or LLM judge as ground truth for where a trajectory failed. We ask whether such labels point at causes or symptoms, and make the distinction executable: we restart the agent from reconstructed intermediate states of a failed trajectory and estimate...

Identifying a robot task from a short instruction is sensitive to which descriptions are available for retrieval. We investigate this effect in the natural-language instructions included with the RLBench manipulation benchmark. We extract 296 fixed descriptions from 62 publicly available task files and compare five tra...
LLM-based automated heuristic design (AHD) discovers heuristics for combinatorial optimization problems (COPs), where an LLM generates candidates in an evolutionary search. Existing frameworks freeze the generator or fine-tune it on a scalar fitness signal hiding which instances each heuristic covers. Reflection-based...
The relationship between odor chemistry and perception remains incompletely understood. Many existing studies focus on the perception of single molecules, whereas natural odors contain tens to hundreds of components, adding extra layer of complexity to percept formation. Here, we explore the relationship between molecu...
When an LLM judge filters instruction-tuning data, its scoring format (binary verdict, 1--5 rating, 0--100 score, or comparison) is rarely justified or ablated. Holding the candidate pool, judge prompt, decoding and selection budget fixed, we score 15,406 UltraFeedback candidates under five formats with three judges, c...
Future AI-native networks are being designed to apply autonomous agents built on large language models (LLMs) in network management through intents. When intents from different domains meet on the same resource, an agent must recognize the cross-domain dependency before taking an irreversible action. We investigate thi...
Whisper-style ASR models provide strong zero-shot transcription, but their residual errors are not evenly distributed across datasets, recording conditions, and metadata-based groups. We study when lightweight low-rank adaptation (LoRA) improves Whisper and whether observed gains require group-specific adapters. Across...
Decision APIs that return a probability for each option are routinely used as if those probabilities were properties of the options themselves. That reading is valid only if the model satisfies independence of irrelevant alternatives (IIA): adding an option that is neither the right answer nor its strongest rival shoul...
Training LLM agents to interact with users over multiple turns is challenging because the learning signal depends not only on the agent, but also on the user simulator and environment, which jointly shape the agent's experience. Simulated users can be stochastic or inconsistent, while environments may contain unreliabl...

We’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.
A new computational approach reveals how cells communicate to assemble into tissues. This could accelerate stem cell engineering, improve disease models, and inform therapies.
Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
